Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 yam, peeled and cubed
1 tablespoon peanut oil
½ large green bell pepper, chopped
½ large onion, chopped
½ teaspoon green curry paste, or more to taste
2 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cubed
1 ½ cups unsweetened coconut milk
¾ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon fish sauce
2 cups thinly sliced spinach
2 cups thinly sliced basil leaves

Steps:

  • Place yam into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain.

  • Stir spinach and basil gently into the wok. Simmer, covered, until flavors combine, 4 to 5 minutes more.

I'm not a big fan of coconut milk, but this dish was still really good. The green curry paste was flavorful and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again, but I might use less coconut milk next time.
